Vaccine Registration: There is no facility for people under 45 years of age to register on the spot registration i.e. Vacation Center. This facility will continue for those above 45 years of age.
Corona Vaccine Registration Process Starts: Between the second wave of Corona epidemic, all people over the age of 18 have to be vaccinated from May 1. Registration has started for this. According to this new policy formulated by the central government, registration will be mandatory. You will not be vaccinated without registration. This will be the third phase of vaccination. The central government has clarified that vaccination registration for people between the age group of 18 to 44 years will be done according to the states.
There are currently two types of vaccines being introduced in the country: Covaxin and Covishield. Experts have said that the vaccine for which the first dose has been applied, the second dose will also be given on the number. What will be the process of registration for people above 18 years of age, will there be spot registration, will you have to spend money also… Many such questions will be going on in your mind. According to experts here, we are answering those questions.
Can you get the vaccine delivered directly to the hospital?
No. Registration is compulsory if you are under 45 years of age. There is no facility for you to register on the spot registration i.e., the Vaccination Center. This facility will continue for those above 45 years of age. But for people under 45 and over 18, the central government has made registration compulsory.
Will vaccines be installed only in government hospitals?
It is the responsibility of the State Governments to get vaccinated people in the age group of 18+. Apart from government hospitals, you can also get vaccinated at private vaccination centers. But for this also you will have to register through the Kovin portal or Arogya Setu or Umang app. At the same time, you will get the option to choose both private and government vaccination centers. You can choose one center as per your convenience. You will have to pay the prescribed fee at the private center.
Big question: will there be facility at all vaccination centers?
No! Consider it such that the first and second stages of corona vaccination were entirely responsible for the central government. The state governments were cooperating in this. Vaccination of people between 18 years and 45 years is the responsibility of the state governments and the central government is supporting it. Right now every government center in every state, there will continue to be vaccinated to 45+ people. According to media reports, since the age group of 18-44 is large, controlling the crowd is a challenge. And for this reason, there is no facility of spot registration for this age group.
According to experts, the vaccination center in which the slot will be available for people in the age group of 18-44, they will be vaccinated. The status of the vaccination centers available on the Kovin portal is also confirming this. As there are 35 Vacation Center shows in a city, there is no appointment available for people in the age group of 18-44. An option show is happening in a few.
A lot has not been clarified in this regard from the state governments at this time. The central government has said that the appointment depends on the state government and the private vaccination center. The sooner the centers schedule, the quicker and easier the appointment will be found.
Vaccination appointments for 18 plus will be possible once the State Governments and Private Vaccination Centers schedule Vaccination sessions. Registration is happening on https://t.co/S3pUooMbXX.
